Harry Reid
Senate Holsters University Gun Proposal

Florida Legislators Speak Out On Government Funding Deal
With just hours to spare, Congress passed a plan to avoid a default and end a 16 day partial government shutdown. The votes came in late, but just in time to avoid the crisis. Just after midnight President Barack Obama signed the bill into law.
Attempt To Defund Obamacare May Be Fading Fast
The plan concocted by Senators Marco Rubio, Ted Cruz, and Mike Lee to either defund the Affordable Care Act or shut down the government appears to be on its last leg after it passed the GOP-led House of Representatives last week.
S. Fla. Congressional Delegation Split On Fiscal Cliff Deal
The bill to avert some of the fiscal cliff finally passed the House of Representatives late Tuesday night and did so with a largely bipartisan vote, especially from the Florida Congressional delegation.
President Meeting With Congressional Leaders Over Fiscal Cliff
President Barack Obama is set to meet with Congressional leaders at the White House Friday to try and reach a compromise to steer the country clear of the looming fiscal cliff.
Poll: Voters Losing Hope For Deal Over Austerity Crisis
President Barack Obama cut his vacation short Wednesday and returned to Washington to continue negotiations on the rapidly approaching fiscal cliff. But, even with that move, a growing number of Americans believe no deal will be reached and the blame is falling on the GOP.
Opinion: History On The Senate Floor
Last week, Senator Mitch McConnell, the Republican Minority Leader in the Senate, did the stupidest thing any Senate Leader has done in the history of the Senate: He filibustered a bill he supported within a minute of introducing the legislation.
Opinion: Why Do The Liberals Keep Complaining?
Liberals and their ilk obviously won the executive branch of the United States government for another four years with the reelection of President Barack Obama, but they still pick fights as much as they did before the election – if not more.
Opinion: Quit Gloating And Whining
We had an election and absolutely nothing that matters has changed. Nothing!
Opinion: Billions Are Being Spent On This Election, But Will It Change Anything?
For all the billions spent by the Obama and Romney campaigns, Republican and Democratic parties, and countless outside groups, we may wake up November 7th to a Washington that is virtually unchanged.
Opinion: It's Obama's Turn To Release Some Documents
While the "left" has distracted the campaign much too long by screaming about Romney's tax information for months, the "right" has been asking for President Barack Obama's academic records and other documents for years. The president should take his turn at disclosing long asked for documents.
Opinion: Romney's Friday Tax Document Dump Only Raises More Questions
If the GOP wants a candidate to "man up", they should tell Mitt Romney to grow up and stop hiding his returns and stop disparaging working Americans for meeting their tax obligations while he dodges his.
Opinion: Harry Reid Needs To Apologize To Mitt Romney And America
It may be too late for Harry Reid to "save face", but it's not too late for him to "man up" and apologize to Mitt Romney – as well as the American public for his misinformation or lies – like any decent human being would.
Opinion: Democratic Millionaires Spew Hate On The Rich
The most ridiculously annoying aspect of the Democratic political run for offices in 2012 is the incredibly long line of leftist millionaires who continually spew extreme hate and venom on the wealthy. Beyond having to "share the wealth", now Democrats are saying it's "never get the wealth".
Opinion: 2012 Democratic National Convention: Superstar-less And On The Defensive
What a difference four horrendous years makes. Thinking back to the Democratic National Convention of 2008 and now seeing what's going on in Charlotte, North Carolina this week at the Democratic National Convention of 2012 shows stark differences. The Democrats have no star power and pale in comparison to the Republicans' star-packed convention in Tampa.
Opinion: Obama Avoids The Issues With Negative Campaign
Being president does not give a person license to disrespect opponents, and the disrespect and intolerance from Obama when a different opinion is expressed has been atrocious.
Opinion: Mitt Romney's Tax Problem
Mitt Romney is the person who needs to put up or shut up in his dispute with Harry Reid. There is no reason to believe a word he is saying about his taxes.
Opinion: Romney: Pay Attention To What I Say, Not What I Do
In an effort to distract voters from his tax records, W. Mitt Romney launched a four pronged push back yesterday. Romney's problem: each move revealed more about the problems with his floundering campaign.
Opinion: Obama Should Release His College Transcripts
Forget Romney's taxes that will simply confirm his wealthy. Let's see Obama's college transcripts and find out what is necessary for him to hide.
Opinion: Democratic Party's Lies And Spins
The blatant lies and the desperate spins generated from the "left" have been absolutely frightening. What's extremely sad for them is that they don't have a prayer of keeping the White House without creating lies and spinning obvious negatives into self-reported positives.
Opinion: Harry Reid Gives Mitt Hell
An investor in Bain told Senator Reid that Mitt Romney had not paid any taxes over a ten year period, but maybe the more intriguing story is who else he hasn't been sending money to in years past.
Opinion: The Audacity Of Harry Reid
How dare Harry Reid, the Majority Leader of the U.S. Senate, spew his latest unsubstantiated rumors against Mitt Romney?
Opinion: Obama And Solyndra Reunite At High Dollar Fundraiser
One would think that Obama and his White House would want to keep the name Solyndra as far from the headlines as possible. Yet, President Obama is rubbing elbows with key players in the Solyndra stimulus disaster at a high-priced fundraiser where donors paid $35,800-per-person.
Opinion: Harry Reid Dares to Talk About Angry Old White Men
Harry Reid got – as he often does – in calling Republican donors "angry old white men". Imagine the reaction if House Speaker John Boehner were to say something such as: support or donations to Obama made by 17 angry black men.
